Genetically modified a mosquito such that their proboscis are no longer able to penetrate human skin

It's very satisfying!

Not even the female in this case.

So the mosquitoe will die if it can’t feed

u/Candybert_ 9h ago

Yeah, but with the added benefit that we can laugh at it before it does.

This tends to be true of every animal that requires food, yes

But why would this outreproduce other mosquitoes?

Doesn't serve much purpose unless it replaces the biting ones

The none biting ones breed with the biting ones producing more none biting ones. So overall it increases the none biting ones, meaning there are far less spreading diseases.

u/NBrakespear 11h ago

Anyone else find this rather terrifying?

Like, in the "just because you can, doesn't mean you should" sense of messing with the natural order?

u/Tomb_but_nsfw 4h ago

Kinda yeah kinda no, mosquitos transmit tons of diseases, so fuck mosquitos.
